Buonissimo!, Birmingham

Buonissimo! is by no means the largest of restaurants, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in style and cooking. It may not be great if you're after complete privacy, given the close proximity of other diners, but the atmosphere is friendly and laid back, and the staff highly accommodating. Food is tasty and reasonably priced. Vegetarian meals are commonplace on the menu, one example being a Red Wine Risotto with Radicchio and Artichoke.
